264,000 errors. @NYCMayor has delivered the largest worker settlement in NYC history.
Since 2023, more than 200,000 Dashers in New York City were underpaid or paid late under the City’s delivery worker pay rules. These errors were unintentional, but that doesn’t make them acceptable. Dashers should be paid in full, on time, every time. We take full responsibility, and we’re deeply sorry.
We’ve reached a $131.5 million settlement with the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. Every impacted Dasher will receive the amount they are owed, and they’ll be contacted directly with payment details.
We understand the impact of even one missed or late payment. We’ve addressed the issues that caused these errors and made changes to prevent them from happening again.

The City of New York asserts this was not a mistake.
“For years, DoorDash failed to count every hour worked by delivery workers,” Mayor Mamdani said. “This was not a rounding error or an accidental mistake.“

Hey @Uber don’t charge me a price and then make an adjustment 2 days later that increases to a price significantly that I didn’t initially commit to. It’s not about the money but it kinda is. Because how many people are you doing this to regularly? I want free Uber One for a year.

re: the BAFTAs:
“The tic reveals a much larger truth: antiblackness is the grammar of the world, and it shapes what even the body can say without choosing.”

It is inconceivable that you can leave SINNERS off of this list and expect to be considered objective film journalists. 40 years in this business has taught me that nothing will ever really change. The film business is more about business than film.

That's an excellent way to put it.
Ryan Coogler talks about approaching his 'X-Files' TV reboot:
"I was talking to a writer ... and she said how she sees movies is you're looking at the most important moment in a character's life, and with TV you're looking at the most important journey in a character's life ... that hit me pretty hard ... I'm a movie person ... and I'm learning to be a television person right now"

Yup. He’s up to 11 pounds. They have to transfer him to another hospital for because the current hospital he’s at cannot meet his complex needs. The family is 100% responsible for the cost even tho the state forced them to keep that poor woman “alive” as a human incubator.
No news outlet is covering this, you know why? Because the fucking experiment on a black woman’s body has FAILED miserably. The only updates are from grandma’s go fund me. They let that woman die for a clump of cells (she was only 9 weeks pregnant at the time) that’s not even doing ok 6 months later. 6 months is a long time to be in nicu!
Adriana Smith is her name. I am so sorry the state did this to you. You were a 30 year old nurse with a kid who was already here who needed you. The state failed you, the very hospital that you worked at who was so supposed to help you failed you…everybody failed you.

As I've been saying, the normalizing and pushing of rapid weight loss drugs for general population use rather than treatment for chronic illnesses like Diabetes, and the resurgence of ED trends on social media is a eugenicist ploy to condition people to accept less access to food
